It really is hard to make up for those "Splurge" days... especially when you overdo it. I had chinese food 3 days ago (it was a blizzard, i was bored, dinner wasn't cooked...blah blah blah) and after 2 days of hard work, have finally lost back the 2 pounds I put on in that one impulse meal. Then again... sodium, water weight, and the reaction to working out that your body has... 1 pound really isn't that much. 

I think you will be fine! I have the same problem when I drink a lot of water before Bedtime. I see a gain and then I become Frustrated because Im gaining. But Im sure that will go down and you will have minus tomorrow! Have a great weekend Chris!!!  

I know all about the weekends that wipe out a week of being "good." I think it's not so much about will power but about planning out every meal in detail, making exercise goals, and making sure the FIRST thing that goes into my mouth is something healthy. Once I start down that weekend snack road, I'm all done. I'm also vowing to have a super healthy week. We'll do it together. That tilapia recipe sounds yum. I've never made tilapia.  

It's the late dinner. I only had a thousand calories during the entire day yesterday (late dinner too) and also had the scale report an increase. Don' let the short term fluctuations bother you, especially in this case, when they *are* artificial. 

Weekends are the hardest because we don't have the same schedule as we do all week long. I think one way to look at it is not as a "weekend" but just as two days, thats all. Also, maybe you co say to yourself, "Ok every OTHER weekend, I'll go out drinking or whatever, and the other weekends I'll be good." Its hard, but you have to come to some conclusion, or else all your hard work durring the week will be ruined. Trust me, I know..... 

Thanks for the support and suggestion guys! I really appreciate it. The last time I was FS, and my weight started going back up, I threw in the towel and gave up (stopped checking in at FS). I won't allow myself to do that again! 

Just gotta say ur font color really makes me want to go to a Phillies game! lol! btw, i want ur dinner! lol 

I'm sure all that water and late dinner had lots to do with it. Next week you should see a pretty big loss if you stick to eating well all week. Don't overdo it on Saturday if possible so you can enjoy yourself on Sunday, then back to work on Monday. ONE MEAL at a time! Just because you screw up in the morning (for example, not saying you did) doesn't mean your whole day is shot. Got it? You'll be fine! Can't wait to see your big loss next week!! 

Lol Gina... GO PHILLIES!!! I can't wait for the season to start back up again. Not too much longer! 

Thanks Laura... I'm hoping... I had this whole calendar based on 2 lbs a week of loss... was supposed to be under 140 next week by my calculations. :(  

Your dinner sounds delich i'm going to change my font to DODGER BLUE!! LOL 

Don't get discouraged. I think Info is right and this is an artifical gain. Keep on track and you will be fine.
